  The Land of Water and Ice! Let us introduce Hwacheon.
 
Old name of Hwacheon was Yasime and the northern tribes were lived in the place from the Old Stone Age.
Hwacheon was called Saengcheon-gun in Gogyryeo Dynasty and Nangcheon-gun under the reign of King Gyeongdeok in Silla Dynasty, through the early Joseon Dynasty. Later, it became an independent county named Nangcheon-hyeon as the foundation of Hwacheon-gun today. Hwacheon-gun has 23,777 population and 909.03㎢ in its area that is divided into Hwacheon-eup, Sangseo-myeon, Hanam-myeon, Sinae-myeon, and Gandong-myeon.
Many tourists are visiting Hwacheon since a variety of programs for four-season farm village experience are being operated in every village, including canoe festival and tomato festival in summer and Sancheoneo festival in winter.
